What knowledge, skills and attitudes do you need to be a successful public health practitioner? The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) has outlined what they call the “basic building blocks of public health education and professional development” in their Core Competencies. The National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools (NCCMT) has created a new tool on its website to help busy practitioners find the many resources available from the NCCMT that can support PHAC’s Core Competencies for Public Health in Canada. This tool helps individuals and organizations find NCCMT resources related to each competency so they can plan professional development activities tailored to their own needs or those of their team. Click here to access the tool: http://www.nccmt.ca/resources/phac-mapping The National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools is funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada and affiliated with McMaster University. The views expressed herein do not necessarily represent the views of the Public Health Agency of Canada. NCCMT is one of six National Collaborating Centres (NCCs) for Public Health. The Centres promote and improve the use of scientific research and other knowledge to strengthen public health practices and policies in Canada.
